    i am having problems with my dvd writer, trying to get it to backup movies. i tried the suggestion posted by "Scubapete" about using shrink along with nero 6. i followed your instructions to the letter. i could not get the "writing" process to work. it reads and logs it fine, but "errors" at about 9%.

    i have a brand new 8x hp 400i dvd writer (+ media only)
    windows xp
    hp pavalion 3.0 gighrtz
    50x hp dvd rom
    1.5 gig ram
    Dual 120 gig hd's (7200 rpm)

    when i got my dvd writer a month ago, i intially bought dvd x-copy platinum. For a few days i was able to get it to work, then all of the sudden it did not want to work either. i have lost 25 blanks....i am willing to try any and all suggestions. My dvd writer seems to be fuctioning properly...i am sure it is some kind of software issue...can someone help?

    i was impressed with the knowledge shown by members after reading a lot of the postings, and thought posting my problem might help
